Back in the day I had a 95 trans am that required a rear end gear additive. I changed the fluid once and didn't add it in so every time I made a turn I'd get a weird noise. I had to do it all over and add the additive. As soon as I did the noise went away.

I had a hum for a few weeks. Thought it was a wheel bearing. Replaced them and nothing. Then that same day noise when from a hum to a whoosh-whoosh-whoosh and then I got a leak from my pinion nut. Haven’t moved the truck since

I HAVE AN 02" BLAZER ZR2 THAT HAS BEEN BABIED. I HAVE A NOISE THAT STARTED OUT SOUNDING LIKE A LOW POWER STEERING FLUID WHINING SOUND FROM THE REAR. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY DRIVER'S SIDE OUTER WHEEL BEARING WHEN I JACKED IT UP & THROTTLED TO 30MPH IT WAS LOUD. I JUST CHANGED IT OUT & THE NOISE IS STILL THERE. MORE IN THE DIFF & PASS SIDE. I NOTICED IT DOES HAVE THE G80 LOCKER IN IT. EVERYTHING LOOKED GOOD, NO NOISES WHEN I TURNED THE SHAFT BY HAND. IT'S ALL CLEAN, NICE & TIGHT. IT HAD VERY LITTLE SHAVINGS ON THE INSIDE MAGNET. NO LEAKS ANYWHERE, NO PLAY IN MY PINION GEAR, IN MY WHEELS BESIDES THE PASS. SIDE REAR HAS A LITTLE IN/OUT PLAY & A LITTLE NOISE (PADS & BEARING, I THINK) WHEN I ROTATE BY HAND. I HAVE A STICK MAGNET I USED TO LISTEN WITH & PUT IT TO THE DIFF COVER & IT WAS KINDA LOUD IN THERE, THERE WAS NOISE AT THE PASS. SIDE WHEEL ALSO. COULD THAT BE DRONING NOISE TO THE DIFF? I'M CONFUSED BECAUSE THERE'S NO CLUNKING SOUNDS. NEW U-JOINTS, ETC. MAYBE ITS THE PASS SIDE REAR WHEEL BEARING & I'M JUST OVER THINKING THIS. I DO NOT TOW OR ANYTHING WITH IT. JUST A MALL RUNNER.. I'M CURIOUS WHY THERE'S NO IN/OUT PLAY ON DRIVERS REAR BUT THERE IS ON THE PASS SIDE WHEEL? WITH IT JACKED UP, THE PASSENGER SIDE SPINS & IT'LL ENGAGE THAT LOCKER & DISENGAGE, THEN IT JUST KICKS IN & OUT. SOMETHING I DIDN'T NOTICE BEFORE I CHANGED THE BEARING OUT..

A reason I’d like to add unless someone already did here then I’m sorry… but wife ran over a pillow and it exploded and somehow became entangled all around my rear axels and diff which then over time caused a lot of extra heat and friction and apparently melted my seals and now after three months I have no oil in it… 2019 dodge challenger GT with 26,000 miles 3.5 years old. Waiting to take it to dodge for the appointment… but I drive only in emergencies. No more than 3 miles at a time. Hoping I don’t screw it up more. Because when I noticed the humming I didn’t think much of it (car dummy) now I have learned much about cars and to never just ignore cries for help. Now it grinds and sounds so much worse. It overpowers my muffler resonator delete lmao😢

I had the second noise, the limited slip clutch pack was bad ~ good explanation with the sounds \m/

@jeffarcher400 5 ай бұрын

My noise is different. It sounds like clacking, usually on deceleration. Sometimes it's quiet like at slow speeds or with the clutch in. It can go for a while with no noise then other times it's pretty bad. If I gas it and get it on the freeway it's smooth till I back off. Goes away with the clutch in. Sounds like a rattling muffler but I changed that and it's still there. Fluid was horrible and I changed it twice. Each time it gets better. I'm using cheap Valvoline and no LSD additive because I hope to keep flushing it out. It's very smooth with no whine or rumble. A few flecks of metal on the magnet but just a little. Hoping it cleans out but don't want to keep driving it when it's rattling. It's a 2002 Miata SE so it should have the Torsen. They're over a grand to replace so really hope it can be fixed. Maybe an aftermarket like Cusco or Tomei but they aren't cheap either. Any advice is appreciated.

Thank you very much for your informative video. I have a 2011 Chevy Silverada 1500. When I change gears there is a noise in the differential by the shaft. Also the differential moves upward a little bit when I change gears. Any ideas? Do you think I need to rebuild the whole differential or can it just be a gear box? Thank you again.

@stephendenson2508 11 ай бұрын

If My rear differential is humming already, if I put some gear oil in there would it stop making that noise or no?

@rud8051 Жыл бұрын

Is there an additive you can add to the rear diff when you do the fluid change that will help make it a little less noisy? Maybe a Lucas product?

How do you remove the overflow (stripped) bolt? I changed the rear differential oil on my 2014 Tacoma 4x4. The overflow/fill bolt is stripped. I think I over tightened it (after filled). Now it turns kind of stiff but it won’t tighten and I can’t take the bolt out either. The drain plug is on there tightly, no oil leaking yet. I wonder what would happen if I drive at high speed on the freeway.

Someone Asked If There Was An Additive? Maybe Lucas Product? I Don't Suggest Using Anything Lucas Makes Other Than Fuel System Cleaner! Use Motul 75-90 or 75-120 And Maybe TUFOIL 2oz's? Some Rear Diffs Get These Noises And Some Don't Even With 400K Miles Stay Quiet Even In The Same Exact Vehicle With The Same Rear Diff, Why? I Have No Idea? Maybe Some Are Made On Friday Or Monday Hangovers?

My Chevy Tahoe wasn’t going in reverse I drove it and it was making the same noise u making then all of my shifts stop working Is it my rear in?

If your Tahoe wasn't going into reverse then all of your forward gears stopped working your transmission needs an overhaul. It has a 4L60e and they very commonly fail.

My Chevy Captiva AWD has an issue. While turning the steering or making a U-turn at slow speed, the car shredders as if something is holding the tires. While reversing and turning the steering, it holds the tires with vibrations. Moreover, both the rear tires are worn only on the inside. The problem doesn't seem to exist when I remove the drive shaft. I tried to change the drive shaft of a good car, but the problem didn't seem to go away. Please help me. What might be the issue with my vehicle?
